Here’s something that could possibly discourage anyone who’s thinking about joining the police force.
In a rather disturbing video now going around on social media, police officers were shown using a new cop as live target during shooting practice.
The live target was identified as PO1 Marvin Gustilo and he is shown with arms outstretched and a balloon between his legs.

Jun Ledesma, the one who posted the video, said that Victorias City police chief Supt. Frederick Mead instructed PO1 Gustillo to position himself at a firing range last May 19.
In the 22-second clip, two bullets were fired, the second one supposedly hit Gustillo on his leg. His screams can be heard at the end of the video.
Ledesma appealed to higher-ranking police officials to hold the local police chief accountable for grave abuse of authority. He claimed that the Negros Occidental Provincial Police Office was biased towards Mead during the investigation.
According to a report by ABS-CBN News, the national police has ordered to relieve Mead of his position, effective Jun 22.
